Powers & Abilities Haoshoku Haki: What are those qualities of a king?

The weird thing about CoC is if you really think about it… don’t most characters have those qualities?

Outside of natural leadership those are very common traits among New World Pirates or marines

A strong willpower is required of a top pirate. Never giving up or bending the knee even in the face of death

Moria, Crocodile, Jinbei, etc and that’s just the warlords

Ambition alone clearly isn’t enough because millions of pirates want to be the Pirate King but will always be fodder

Lineage is a factor but it doesn’t have a 100% pass down rate since Big Mom had 60 something kids and only 1 has it

Extraordinary fighters are also very common in the New World

Plenty of famous pirates/marines that don’t have CoC

The list goes on

Also if you think about it there aren’t many CoC users that actually meet all of the criteria

For example, Whitebeard is one of the strongest characters with CoC but has little to no ambition. The same goes for CoC users like Katakuri and Ace

Let’s take a look at Yamato. She’s strong and she has the willpower but she can’t lead to save her life

CoC just isn’t solid. You can have all of the qualities and not have it but have 1 or 2 of the qualities and have it

the true answer is there isnt a rule or general convention on what that is.



some get it genetically like katakuri even though they lack almost all the other qualities
some have strong ambitions like zoro and coby who will prob get it
a few of them have it and are never/are not in leadership position like rayleigh
and others were just primed to be strong like wb

lastly you will find characters that meet this bar better than many who have conquerors and they wont have the ability i.e law.its as simple as if the author wills it.

Delusional:gokulaugh:Nobody calls an admiral a king. They work under the direct command of the Celestial Dragons. If Coby was like Garp, who didnt want to serve the CDs, I would understand.
It's still a kingly ambition, he's aiming for the top of the world in strength and at the top of his organization which is highly competitive.

There's a reason he was embarrassed to say it out loud, it's that big of a dream, extremely difficult to achieve it's almost impossible.

these lot are too Gung ho with the cd slave narrative , they have forgotten admirals are also given a strength title above everyone else in the world government structure .

Its no kingly ambition when they can get OP logia fruits from their masters

It was a big dream for him because he was a petty officer, not even a captain

Koby said he wants to be an Admiral to compete with the Pirate King. And Luffy agreed that Koby needs to aim that high if he wants to fight him (it's similar to when Zoro announced his WSS dream).

Read One Piece without hater glasses on and then maybe you can understand this children's manga 😂
 
What kinda logic is that, if you are under someone you can’t have CoC? Then what about all the Pirates who work under another Pirate, yet stil have CoC? People really need to stop making shit up…
